Comment from Roman Dodia

I am writing to express my deep concern as a visually impaired individual who relies heavily on the Rider's Choice program. This program, through the voucher system provided by the Transdev AccessLink service, has been a lifeline for me, enabling essential travel to and from the hospital. It is not just a convenience; it is a necessity that supports my health and well-being. The potential changes to this program could have significant consequences on our lives. For many of us who are blind or visually impaired, this service is vital for maintaining our independence. It allows us to fulfill our responsibilities and be present for our families in times of need. Without it, our ability to travel to essential destinations would be severely compromised, affecting not only our personal lives but also our capacity to contribute to our communities. I kindly urge you to consider the profound impact that altering this program could have on individuals like myself. Maintaining the current structure is crucial for ensuring that we can continue to live independently and with dignity. Your understanding and support in preserving this vital service would be greatly appreciated by all who depend on it.
